Faceoff: Inside the NHL Premieres Oct 4th on Prime Video

Will definitely give this a watch. I think it's a good thing that a Company like Amazon is getting behind the NHL.

Who would have thought Dale Gribble of all people would hold this opinion.

 

[Juxta Position]

Wait till you hear him launch into a tirade of the Oilers just missing the blocked shots/hits parlay

Love the McDavid haters such as yourself for years saying McDavid is a bad leader because he shows no emotion, now you see a behind the scenes and he's showing emotion and you haters call it "temper tantrum" or a "tirade".

Such predictable behavior from the McDavid hater crew on here.

I was the first person on this site to say he's a top 10 all time player

Is McDavid Top 10 For You All Time Already? If Not How Much More Does He Have to do?

Easy yes for me based on personal awards

Why is everyone taking EdmFlyersFan comment here so seriously? Dude hates the Oilers, no other comment should be expected.

That was an easy ignore honestly. People living in mom's basement thinking they an expert on what happens in lockerrooms in high level sports.

This show looks like it’s going to be awesome

Apparently, Amazon seems to be eying a big chunk of games out of the next TV deal and seem quite invested with the NHL.

This looks interesting and their Monday night package also looks like it's being done well and while I'm not big on streaming games but of all the big sites I prefer prime, I think they will spend the money to keep it from looking bush league imo.

This is a lot better than Sportsnet / TSN shit you can watch. I hope NHL moves over to Amazon.

In all of those clips no one is screaming like an adolescence. Those players are clearly frustrated and using profanity to get their message across but none of them are having a wild out-of-control temper tantrum.

lol, Kobe's antics are a school yard bully, he at one point refused to talk to a teammate who was in the stall next to him for an entire year because he felt the player was beneath him, not even so much as a "how's the wife and kids?", even one time for an entire year.

Jordan punched a teammate half his size in the face in practice.

You can't take a little yelling in the locker room, you got no business being in pro sports.

I don't believe you.

Who said it before me, I am an oracle, the HFboards version of JT Miller.

This looks like a great watch

The Leafs “All or Nothing” was surprisingly good. I imagine this will be too

That scene feels like the end of the first Godfather movie

Horrible behavior from a captain

Are all the episodes being released at once or are they going to be released weekly?

When you're at an Oilers banquet and you haven't touched your food once:

(In all seriousness though it's nice to see McDavid showing some emotion for a change)

 

[Strangle]

My daughter plays competitive soccer a year up, but she still lacks the major ‘competitive, win at all costs’ perspective.

She gets upset and takes things personal when a girl on the team will correct her or point out she’s in the wrong position, or didn’t make the correct decision.

I am going to watch every episode of this with her and try to point out that all of these ‘bitchy’ things are just in the interest of winning and you cannot take it personally.

When Nylander says “stop crying bro” on the bench, or McDavid yelling at the top of his lungs at his team, all of these things are good and positive things and I’m hoping this perspective can help her grow in her athletic career by being able to distinguish between a personal attack and getting defensive about it and teammates helping and instructing and directing each other when they’re not doing the right things all in the interest of winning.

Competitive sports have so many life lessons to teach, and I think this one is very important. When you get into your career and you cannot take feedback effectively, you’re going to be miserable.

Best to learn how to handle it young and I think this show will really put a lot of that into perspective for a young athlete

Oh hell yeah. And I’m off from work today, beauty.

Watched the first ep. Thought it was kinda mid. They really don't show much on ice action or other players not directly involved.

Isn't that the point though? To be a behind the scenes look at some of the league's stars? We all saw the games last year, can see the highlights anytime on YouTube if you want.

I loved episode 1. Seeing/hearing the guys in the rooms between periods.

Pasta and Willy

Ep1 I was entertained, but it felt like any other behind the scenes hockey show that various teams do nowadays, except this one focuses on only two players. Can't go wrong with Nylander and Pastrnak to start things off.

Slick production and something to watch while waiting for next week.
